Rebirth of the scholarly lady

Chapter 137 Familiar yet Strange People
Was Su Xiangyang really the murderer who killed Princess Ruihe?
Why didn't he run away and turn himself in like a fool?
Numerous questions linger in Nan Surou's mind.

What's not to like about that man Su Xiangyang?How should I put it, it is difficult to express it in words, if he is not a bit weird, he can be regarded as a good ally.

Nan Surou didn't realize that when her mind was full of Su Xiangyang, her complexion became a little embarrassing.

The originally lovely face looked eerie.

Both Hu Jun and Hu Jiayi noticed this.

But what kind of characters are Hu Jun and Hu Jiayi? Apart from being a little surprised at the beginning, they immediately covered up their emotions.

Hu Jun coughed and asked softly, "Miss Nan, do you know that Su Xiangyang?"

Hu Jun's words woke Nan Surou up from her contemplation. She immediately put on a confused expression and muttered to herself, "Su Xiangyang? Who is that?"

"Oh, I see that you just heard that name, and your complexion is not very good. You thought you were harmed by this person." Hu Jun's tone was half-true and half-false, and it sounded like she was joking, but her words had to be Said it was pretty nasty.

If Nan Surou couldn't bear it, after hearing Hu Jun's last words, his facial expression would inevitably reveal his flaws.

It's just that Hu Jun missed the opportunity, how could Nan Surou be seen through by him?

Nan Surou looked confused, and her expression was very slow, as if she didn't understand Hu Jun's implication for a while, and didn't react at all.

Her reaction was as if she never thought that anyone would question her like this. Hu Jun and Hu Jiayi already believed that her gloomy expression just now was just a coincidence.

Hu Jun coughed again, and said: "Miss Nan, I'm glad you came with us today. I just remembered now that you must have never seen such a bloody scene. I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. You, don't worry, if you are afraid for a while, just close your eyes."

Close your eyes?Hu Jun also said earlier that watching such a horrible scene is to test her courage, and even being afraid of this, doesn't it show that Nan Surou is not very courageous and easily loses her dignity in front of others?

Hu Jun once again tried to lure Nan Surou into the trap by saying something hidden in a smile.

Nan Surou just smiled, "It's okay, I hope the execution time won't be too long, so that I won't go back late and only upset my adoptive father." She added in her heart: It's not a big deal, she's already numb.

And this is just Nan Surou's polite words, a thousand cuts will cost three days at least, right?
Nan Surou did not see this kind of scene uncommonly in her previous life. She has already died once, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

"Don't worry, it won't be too long." Hu Jun said sincerely: "I swear to you by my child, it won't be too long, but please forgive me for my recklessness. So many, I hope you are not as hot-headed as my brothers, if it were them, it would be impossible to accompany me out so easily."

You don't have a child yet, it's really low to swear on your unborn child... Nan Surou couldn't help complaining in her heart.

After that, the three fell silent.

Hu Jun's carriage ticked in and out of the traffic on the streets of Wangdu, heading towards the Meridian Gate.

The carriage passed a stone bridge and stepped onto the bridge, leaving the busy street behind.

Nan Surou tried her best to remain calm until a quarter of an hour later, the carriage drove into a street near the Meridian Gate, and stopped outside a three-story restaurant.

The street was full of people, it was lunch time, and the first floor of the restaurant was packed.

As soon as the shopkeeper saw Hu Jun, he warmly greeted them and led the three of them to the seats that Hu Jun had reserved.

This location is not a private room, but a place where you can clearly see the execution ground. It seems that Hu Jun is planning to enjoy the delicious food while watching the bloody scene.

They sat around the dining table, and the shopkeeper seemed to want to flatter Hu Jun, saying that he had prepared an elegant cubicle for him, but Hu Jun refused to enter the cubicle.

When the waiters served the dishes one after another, Hu Jiayi, who had always maintained a reserved state, said, "Jun'er, is the food here delicious? Last time we watched the beheading at Lvlizhuang, and this is the first time I've been here."

"You can try the lion's head, I think it's good, big sister, people like us are used to delicacies from mountains and seas, and those street foods are really rare." Hu Jun vowed.

The waiter brought a jar of fruit wine and poured three glasses full.

Both Hu Jun and Hu Jiayi took a sip of the wine glass familiarly. Seeing that Nan Surou didn't touch the glass, Hu Jun couldn't help but said: "This fruit wine is made from plums. It's sweet and sour. Ms. Nan might as well Give it a try."

"I don't drink alcohol. I've seen too many good people get into trouble because of alcohol." Nan Surou said bluntly.

"Um, I'm sorry, I never asked your opinion." Hu Jun said to Nan Surou in a nice voice, "I didn't know you don't drink alcohol. It's my elder sister's custom to prepare wine today. I don't treat you like that." Maliciousness is definitely not intentional to run on you, so don't take it to heart."

From the very beginning, when Hu Jun spoke, as long as Nan Surou's words showed rejection, he kept apologizing, which made people feel very weird.

Just as Nan Surou was about to answer, Hu Jiayi whispered: "Ah, look, that person is locked in a cage and is about to go to the execution ground."

Nan Surou followed her gaze, and saw a group of officers and soldiers leading a prison car back from the crowd in the distance, marching mightily towards the execution ground.

The man in the prison car was disheveled, naked, his hands were cut behind his back, and he was kneeling in the cage. His skin was fair, his face was as cold as jade, his eyelashes were thick, and his nose was straight. Even in such a state of embarrassment, he still couldn't hide that pretty face.

Su Xiangyang?Nan Surou looked at the familiar face, but couldn't find anything familiar to her except the facial features.

This person is not Su Xiangyang... Nan Surou thought, why did she have such a strange idea?
The man in the cage, whose appearance is so clearly displayed in front of people, no matter how you look at it, it should be Su Xiangyang, but this "Su Xiangyang"'s eyes that should be full of calculation and cynicalism are just trying to escape from the crowd of onlookers. Eyes like a wounded hare.

Since he was so afraid, why did he surrender himself in the first place?

Would a pervert like Su Xiangyang instantly become a coward because of something like this?Nan Surou didn't believe it.

I don't know if it's because she doesn't want to accept the reality, or if things are supposed to be like this, there is a voice in Nan Surou's heart that keeps telling her that the person sitting in the cage is not the real Su Xiangyang at all, and that she and that perverted man will definitely meet again. met.

Thinking of this, Nan Surou's originally anxious mood was miraculously calmed down.

Hu Jiayi on the side gave out a voice of admiration: "That man's face is really enviable, no wonder the princess likes him, I heard that he accidentally killed the princess when he was resisting the princess, and he confessed his crime by himself, his character is still good , it's a pity..."

Nan Surou looked at the prison car in the distance, with a smile in her eyes, her superficial expression seemed to be looking at the honor of a stranger before death.

Hu Jun has been secretly looking at Nan Surou, gentle, kind, noble and elegant, this is the impression Nan Surou gave him.

If this woman is not really pure and flawless, she is too good at acting!
